Bruce To me ,. I would concentrate on saving the money, given all you have stated is going on in your life,,and agree with the others there are numerous ways to get fit for the type of tests your looking at doing that dont require making someone else rich.... while the convieniance of having a gym in your space seems good, Your schedual says, to me something in the way in 6 months or a year that it might never get used... setup your own pack to practice for the test do body weight exercises as was mentioned and try to getthe vollies to shell out for the gym.. whataboutusing the weight room at school? just some ideas..

Bruce-I've been involved with fitness for approximately 31 years. (As a body builder, power lifter and now certified personal trainer for my FD.) I've used all types of home gyms and had many different gym memberships. Although you are right about going to the gym it sounds as though you have a full agenda and getting to the gym would be next to impossible. As I said I have tried many types of home gyms-unfortunately to get a really good one you will have to spend a little money. On the down side if you want to sell it you will never recoup your money. Oftentimes you will find it will only collect dust and serve as a great clothes hanger. Our department recently purchased the P90X program and have had excellent results from it. I do believe it will help you get in shape for any upcoming fit tests. You only need the program, dumbbells and a pull up bar-it can be done in your own home at your convenience. Hope this helps!? Take care and stay safe!!!
